Adorable clothes! I think my son's wardrobe is approximately 90% Janie and Jack apparel right now…read more It has that classic look that is so sweet. I didn't know anything about this chain until my MIL introduced me to their precious styles. They come out with new designs on a very regular basis and they also have great sales. Clothes are high quality and last many washes. Def on the $$ side, but I'm hoping they'll be closet staples.

If you need a sweet, super soft and cuddly gift for a new baby, or even for an older child (up to…read moreabout size 8), head over to The Fashion Mall and check out Janie and Jack, where you'll find the most adorable clothing you've seen in a very long time. This store is not a local mom-and-pop shop, but it's worth mentioning on here because the clothing is so well made and so much nicer than almost anything else you'll find around. It's actually part of the Gymboree Company, but these clothes seem to be a step up from even that. They are more "boutique" in style, I think, and the prices reflect that. Be ready to spend a pretty, shiny penny on anything you get here. But it's worth it. Especially if you're shopping for a new baby. These clothes are so delicate and precious, almost as much as the baby that will be wearing them.

I visited Hey Little Diddle to find a gift for my new niece, who has a fancy name, so this store…read moreseemed like an appropriate place to begin to look for a gift for her. This store is a little fancy, but not overly so. It's very carefully curated, and the color palate is beige-taupe-oatmeal-neutral toned. It's like if Restoration Hardware created a baby store. If you're looking for neutral baby clothes, Hey Little Diddle is your place. The prices are a little too rich for my blood, as I prefer outfitting babies and toddlers in hand-me-downs that they can throw up on, fall down in, get muddy and messy, and also don't cost $125. The clothing here is adorable, though, and you won't find outfits like these anywhere else in the area. I wasn't looking for baby clothes, but more like toys or trinkets. They do have a few, but not a huge selection. I would visit this store for clothing mostly.

From school uniforms to the cutest little outfits for boys and girls, you'll have a difficult time picking just one thing! The toys and books are great, too. Not stuff you see everywhere. I like finding shops that have unique toys and gift items, especially for kids. It's great to go to a birthday party with a gift the kid doesn't already have from a big-box store!

After you do some shopping you might as well continue down the street for kid books at Kids Ink and pizza at Byrnes. Illinois Street has the best shops for a nice little afternoon in Indy.

Cute, cute, cute. I admit to spending way too much on my children's wardrobe but my adorable…read moretoddler boys have to look their best! This little store can easily cost me $$$ because I want to get one of everything. I also really enjoy their active social media presence and seeing all the new products come in. Very nicely curated and styled so even though it's a small space, it seems to pack a lot in there and the displays are constantly changing. Only complaints? Since it's a small boutique, the sizes I need are often sold out, especially if I'm trying to get my boys to match so I can't always find the right item in the right size. And second, I've sadly noticed the quality isn't as good as some of their Target and Gap standards. Several pieces that cost more than my clothes are already losing threads after one wash or starting to pill. So I feel I end up shopping here to support local and enjoy the cute trends, but not necessarily to find items that will last all season or be passed down.

I don't like to shop but love shopping at Von Maur. The staff is professional and super helpful and…read morefriendly. They gift wrap beautifully and will send packages for no charge. The merchandise is high end, name brand. They carry men's, women's and children's clothing and shoes and a small section of seasonal household decor. Yesterday, I bought several gifts. The store was decorated with a pianist playing Christmas music. I found exactly what wanted and an associate carefully took the information for wrapping and sending. I saw several other things I wanted, including Christmas outfits for my granddaughters. I left without buying, but later in the day decided my girls needed those outfits. I called the store and Deidreana found the outfits and put them on hold until I got back over there. The outfits were even on sale. Returns/exchanges are easy. They put gift receipts in each package. The store is always immaculate and has lovely restrooms. There is plenty of parking around the store, although parking fills during the holiday shopping season. I recommend and will probably go back this week myself.

I've watched over the years the steady decline of diverse inventory of department stores. This…read morestore is no different. I maybe go in Von Maur once a season, and it is even more noticeable at least to me, when you visit a store in longer intervals. They do have excellent eye-catching merch displays and still focused on upscale dressing and seemed like every section had a sales associate to help and areas were upkept. They are targeting heavily toward the older higher income demographics. It is especially telling when you listen to their choice of piano music in them. I would think a salesclerk would go a bit bonkers hearing taped renditions over and over of sickeningly sweet instrumental earworm inducing oldies all day long. I'm surprised this mall chain has lasted, as it hasn't really changed with the times. As times get ever more difficult with less to spend in this way, it will be interesting to see how this chain reacts.

Very friendly people working here but the store is super small. It's hard to see the merchandise.read more

And they have stuff set up in a way that you can picture them in your child's room. It's a good place for inspiration and aspiration.
